CommScope, a global leader in network connectivity, announced today a collaboration with Xplore to bring new rural broadband services to Ontario, Canada.
Xplore, the largest rural-focused broadband service provider in Canada, will connect more than 35,000 homes and businesses to fiber internet as part of the Government of Ontario’s Accelerated High-Speed Internet Program (AHSIP).
